Chapter 106: Reward and Banquet
"Hua Gong San......" I recalled the records I remembered about this medicine, and unconsciously read it out.
Except for Mrs. Chen and Ah Chu, all the martial arts practitioners present were shocked.
Gu Ye hurriedly said, "Where did you come from?" ”
"It was this kind of medicine that Tongtianmen ordered to me and Achu back then."
"Do you know what this medicine is for?"
"I know, if someone who practices martial arts uses it, he will no longer be able to mobilize his internal strength." I said, "Unless you can take the antidote within forty-eight hours, no matter how deep your internal strength is, you will be lost, and it will be impossible to rebuild." ”
Ah Chu echoed, "I always thought that things like internal strength were all talked about in a book, but later I learned that my meridians had been abolished fourteen years ago......
Achu lowered his head and didn't say any more.
Whether it is "me" who escaped from Lan Yuan's death or me who crossed over, I am not very interested in martial arts, so for me, not being able to practice martial arts is not such a fatal thing.
But Achu is different, she has always been proud of her ability to know more martial arts than ordinary women, although she never cared that she failed to become a peerless master, but for her, knowing that her good talent was abolished by others, this blow was far greater than that she was already a mediocre talent.
Li Jian was silent for a long time, and finally said, "It is a merit for the four of you to save the people of the north, and it is also for this reason that you are summoned today. ”
The meaning of Li Jian's words is very clear, he will not deal with the things of that year. Indeed, with the complexity of these previous events, it is no longer up to him alone to decide how to end the matter.
"Shen Bingran, Chen Anchu, Gu Xinyi, Sun Zhongjing, are equivalent to going to the north in a dangerous situation, and they did not hesitate to solve the difficulty of the three levels with their lives.
"The people's daughter (grass people) understands that it is the duty of the doctor to help the world and save people, and it is also the responsibility of the people such as us to relieve the country's worries, and we dare not be proud of our achievements."
"If you wait too much, in this case, I will seal each of you a six-grade false title, and you can receive a monthly salary, as for the title, I will send someone to announce the decree after it is drawn up, and announce it to the world."
"Thank you for the grace of the official family."
"Sun Zhongjing, if you want to enter the Tai Hospital in the future, you only need to pass the hospital judgment and assessment to directly serve as a six-grade medical officer." Li Jian said, and glanced at me, Achu, and Xin Yi again, "Actually, according to me, although the three of you are women, you are not inferior to men, but now that I am a female official or a lady of an official household who has left the cabinet, or a palace maid who has never married in her life and is highly respected, if you three really want to be female officials, you should wait until a lifelong event is decided." ”
As a monarch who rewards meritorious deeds, Li Jian's consideration is indeed thorough, so we still sincerely kowtow to him and thank him, and the eunuch led him out.
Two days later, Li Jian's holy decree really came, and the official position of the four of us was called "Tong Zhilang", according to the eunuch who announced the decree, in the early years, Huaguo still had the saying of "donation", mainly to subsidize the finance, and Tong Zhilang is the highest rank in the virtual title that can be donated, and it is not worth tens of thousands of silver.
Achu and I are most happy about this, after all, having an official title means that we don't have to be tenant farmers anymore, and we don't have to think about how to pay rent.
And following the holy decree, there were also congratulatory gifts from officials from the British Mansion, the Chengguo Marquis Mansion and the Ye Mansion.
The eunuch who witnessed everything hung a flattering smile, "A few adults don't know, today's court meeting, the official family will tell all the ministers about the deeds of a few people, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will naturally congratulate you on the joy of promotion, and even our family is honored to make a proclamation." ”
Mrs. Chen took some Xie Yin and sent the eunuch away, and a room of people began to count the dazzling array of "congratulatory gifts".
Sun Zhongjing looked at this pile of jewels and was shocked in place: "It turns out that Fengguan is so profitable?" I don't think I'll be able to use up all this money for the rest of my life! ”
Xin Yi is worthy of being the only one of us who comes out of a family, "There are many officials who are officials, and the expenses are naturally more." Officialdom entertainment, family expenses, all from here, although we don't have a big family to support, but these favors will be returned in the future, so it's not too much. ”
Chen Shu and Chen Xian were not surprised, Chen Shu said, "Although it is a false title, the size is also an official, and it is extremely rare to directly confer official six grades, and it is common for someone to give gifts and stammer, and it will be returned when the time is right." ”
"If it's an ordinary official, if you don't know the situation, you can just come to give gifts, but this British government ...... Do you need to give gifts and place invitations? "I picked up the invitation on the top pile of gifts, and I was confused by the very formal invitation.
Chen Xian saw it and smiled slightly, "The British public is a first-class official, and since he has placed an invitation, if he resigns, he will not give him face." ”
"Grandma, we must understand this truth, but that General Gu Si said that Bingran like that at the time, and I was not angry for Bingran when I thought about it." Achu muttered.
"Let's go, it's not that I haven't been there, besides, it's his British government that invited us, and it's not that we dare to go, didn't we say a word about it, then talk to him and come back." I said.
However, when we were taken to the British government by carriage, we found that this invitation was too subtle - it was said that it was "a narrative", but it turned out to be a banquet specially opened to thank the four of us for "saving our lives"!
Although the four of us reminded each other a hundred times before getting off the bus not to show that they had never seen the world, but when we saw that the "companions" were actually the officials and female dependents of such families as the Lin family and the Su family, and even the two not unfamiliar faces of Duan Wang and King Gong appeared among the guests, we looked at our deliberately "informal" attire, and just wanted to find a hole to get into.
The envoy of the British Mansion behaved very well when she saw us, and took us to the guest room or the annex to "rest", and by the way changed into a dress suitable for attending the banquet.
The envoy of the British Mansion, after seeing us, behaved very well, and after looking at us quietly, she immediately asked someone to take us to the guest room or the courtyard for a "rest", and by the way changed into a dress suitable for a banquet.
I was placed in an elegant, exquisite room, waiting for the "maid who took care of the clothes" to come.
Thinking of the angry eyes of the British Duke and Chen Yi's cold words that day, I felt like I was on pins and needles.
After waiting for a while, someone finally came, but it was not the maidservant girl with the clothes, but the one I did not want to see at this moment.
The moment I turned around and saw the visitor, I subconsciously rushed out the door.
